In the race to get plastic 1/350 figures to the market Tamiya may have won, but their offering is a little thin.

The new 1/350 naval figures from Tamiya come packaged with 144 figures, in 6 different poses. The problem with these figures is they could substitute for "Flat Stanley." They are little different from PE crew figures.

The rear of the packaging holds some painting guidelines.

Disappointing. When compared to the new crew figure offerings from Fujimi and DML, well; the Tamiya figures might have use bulking out the crowd on your next 2 September 1945 USS Missouri Diorama.

This package of figures has a MSRP of $11.50.
